Besides produce, herbs, flowers, plants and eggs we offer recipes, meal preparation, garden suggestions and other farm related tips. Many are posted on Instagram. We plan to continue hosting some farm events. This past years Farm Tour, Seeding Event, and Photos at the Barn were successful. Tentative events for upcoming season may include an art event "Paint the Old Barn", a "Wine Tasting at the Old Barn" event and a "Farm Fit" event incorporating exercise into farming and some type of Farm Tour. More to come on that.

Free Range Eggs
Satisfaction Guaranteed
We love our chickens! We have many beautiful and friendly breeds. We currently have 3 age groups. Our only remaining Golden Girl is now 10 years old, she lays an occasional egg but the big news, she's a mom to 2 fall babies! Our 1-3 year old's are our heaviest producers. They've been on a brief hiatus due to molting, but they're coming back! When our hens no longer lay eggs they get to live out their life as our pets. Our chickens/eggs are 100% free range during daylight hours. Chickens eat home made porridge every morning, yea, that separates our eggs from the rest. Eggs are ungraded.
Winter is here! What's new?
Music Garlic has been planted for spring/summer harvest. Collards, Kale, Lettuce, Salad size Mustard Greens, Pac Choi and Swiss Chard dominate the beds. Herbs are also available and after a brief hiatus to molt the girls are laying again, but at a winter rate, so we have limited quantity of eggs! The 2022 Seed Order has been received and planning the spring layout is next. This is the last week at Union County Farmers Market so please email me with an order or come for a farm pick up. See the link to availability on next page.
We continue to take orders for eggs, seasonal veggies and herbs - just send us a message.

About Old Barn Farm
Old Barn Farm is a small produce farm located in Wesley Chapel close in to Charlotte. Originally from Long Island, but spending the past 30+ years in the Charlotte area, we’re a husband & wife team that moved out to the country to experience small farm life. We practice responsible and sustainable growing methods and treat our animals kindly. While always trying to maintain a healthy balance in our lives, we have found that farming is good for us both physically and mentally. The physical demands of farming provide a constant source of exercise and the mundane tasks like weeding or seeding provide mental calming. The produce we grow provides excellent nourishment to our bodies. As we age we continue to be aware of the need to maintain a good level of physical activity and you can be assured farming provides that! So we’re “Staying Farm Fit” and get to bring you healthy produce in the process.
About the Old Barn
We loved this property when we moved here in 2012. The old barn has been a back drop for many photograph sessions, in fact, the day we moved in, there were people at the barn taking pictures. Fall is particularly pretty, especially when you throw a haystack and pumpkin out front. We did expand the barn slightly to accommodate our horses but otherwise we've kept it true to original. This barn is alive, especially at dawn and dusk, feeding time.
